Lauv made a strong impact on the City Stage, packing the largest area of Lebreton Flats with fans and kept the crowd involved by starting with an intro to “I Like Me Better” and then bringing it back towards the end of the show. Ari Leff knows how to keep his fans wanting more and with the likes of Rob Ernst on drums, the electricity in the audience was contagious!

The Lachy Doley Group made it to the Claridge Homes Stage just in the nick of time after a vehicular breakdown in Papineauville, Quebec on the way. This Australian group had talent flowing out their fingers and the fans showed the love.
